you are my motivation
Ok...so I was up at 3am coughing and spluttering....my mind is already in the mind frame of what a excuse to not go to the gym...I take 2 panadol almost choke on the 2nd (it just wouldn't go down) I put vicks on the chest and head back to bed, my mind says 'you're sick...you dont need to go'
I wake up...all I can think is how dissapointing, I told my blog world that I'd go to the gym...mind says 'who cares...sick sick sick' I jump onto my blog and read all the comments....I cant let you guys down...take 2 more panadol vicks the chest up and I go to the gym...managed 45mins cardio and about 10mins worth of weights...I did it!
You people out there are truely inspiring...you became todays motivation...again and again I self proclaim....WE ARE GOING TO BE WINNERS....lets keep supporting one another, together we are strong, thank-you for helping me be strong.

Go you - go you - go you!!!
I am super impressed! and that list of what you did at the gym sounded pretty good too!!
Hey, I just clicked on through Venus' site (I loved the blog name!) and I will be stopping back often! GOOD LUCK!!! :)
Hi Laura, good on you! It is hard when you have the little voice in your head telling you don't bother...but I'm so glad to hear you were strong enough to ignore it! Way to go!!! Have a terrific day hun and I'll pop back in soon to see how you're going!
Hi Laura,
When I read your post this morning, I thought of this poem I read ages ago and thought you might like it...
"Whatever It Takes"
I have an ambition to reach for the top
I've set my sights high to pursue it.
Until I achieve it my efforts won't stop.
Whatever it takes, I will do it.
I have no delusions success will be swift
or obstacles do not bestrew it.
I've plenty of time - over hurdles I'll lift.
Whatever it takes, I will do it.
There may come a time when my climb will be slow.
I'll have to regroup and renew it.
I'll learn from mistakes and employ what i know.
Whatever it takes, I will do it.
There is no restriction on what I'll achieve.
Glass ceiling or not, I'll break though it.
For nothing can sway me because I believe it.
Whatever it takes, I will do it.
There is one exception that I will not break.
I won't use deceit to get to it.
What good is success if our souls we forsake?
If that's what it takes I won't do it.
In fact if you want, I can take you along
Our efforts combined placed into it.
For working together, we'll be twice as strong.
We know what it takes.
WE CAN DO IT!

Wow, your a legend!! 45 mins cardio when your sick is fabulous, I bet you were buggered after that!
You are an inspiration, going to the gym when feeling sick...GO YOU!!!!
wow you're so much better than me... going the gym especially when you're sick... GO GIRL!
i'd so use it as an excuse and sleep more!!!!
bet you felt a bit better afterwards too... nothing like a good workout to ge the chest working again...
WooHoo - Go Laura - and today you are mine. Gunna finish my to do list and go to the gym!
Hey Laura. Don't overdo it at the gym when you are sick. Being sick is usually your bodies way of telling u to take a break so take care. Your body is probably trying to recover after the Pyramid Rock Festival still. Look after yourself.
You are amazing! Just remember not to overdo the gym when you're sick otherwise you could prolong the icky-ness and it'll drag you down.
I think it's wonderful how much stronger and believing in yourself over the last few weeks, But on the other hand - I bet you have no idea how many people you are motivating too ;D
keep up the lovely work Hun
Good on you:)
Your right i am going to do the same tomorrow a head cold is no excuse to miss gym:)
Em
Thanks for the well wishes Laura. I am feeling much better today and I hope you are feeling much better soon too :-)
